Magnetic track lights work by using a modular system where magnets on the light fixtures allow them to attach securely to a magnetic track. The track itself contains electrical conductors that provide power to the fixtures. This magnetic attraction, combined with the electrical connection within the track, enables users to effortlessly mount, reposition, and remove light fixtures without tools, offering a highly customizable and versatile lighting solution.
Here's a breakdown of how it works:
Here's a breakdown of how it works:
- The Magnetic Track:
- The track is typically a channel made of materials like aluminum, and it contains copper conductors and an iron sheet within it.
- This track serves as a low-voltage power supply system.
- The track is typically a channel made of materials like aluminum, and it contains copper conductors and an iron sheet within it.
- The Magnetic Fixtures:
- Each light fixture has permanent magnets embedded in its base.
- When a fixture is brought near the track, the magnetic attraction allows it to firmly attach to the iron sheet on the track.
- Each light fixture has permanent magnets embedded in its base.
- Power Transfer:
- At the same time, the fixture attaches magnetically, and the fixture makes contact with the copper conductors inside the track.
- This completes the circuit, allowing the low-voltage electricity from the track to power the LED lights in the fixture.
- At the same time, the fixture attaches magnetically, and the fixture makes contact with the copper conductors inside the track.
- Ease of Use:
- The system is designed for easy installation and reconfiguration, with no need for tools to move or add fixtures.
- You can slide the fixtures along the track or remove and replace them as needed, giving you full control over your lighting layout.
- The system is designed for easy installation and reconfiguration, with no need for tools to move or add fixtures.
